Implants in the maxilla or mandible were served first as anchorage to correct the malocclusion and then to restore the dentition defects. The implant anchorage in the palate didn't move medially after the anterior teeth had been adducted by 6-8 mm. 3 cases of zygo-alveolar ridge implantation failed. 5 cases of adult Angle II division I, II malocclusions as well as Kennedy II dentition defects were orthodontically treated for 8-10 months, the lower anterior teeth were adducted by 6-8mm, aligned and the midline was corrected with no medial movement of the implant anchorage. Then the implants were used to restore the missing teeth. It is feasible and effective to use implant as anchorage in orthodontic and prosthodontic treatment in ca
